Colour Mill Red

Colour Mill Red is a classic, true red that stays bright without a bitter taste. This oil-based food colouring is highly concentrated, so a few drops give strong, even colour in buttercream, chocolate and fondant without changing the texture.

It's the go-to colour for red velvet cakes, Christmas bakes, Valentine's treats and bold birthday cakes.

Tip: For a deep red, colour your buttercream the day before. Oil-based colours keep developing as they rest.

How to use

• Shake well before use.
• Start with a few drops and mix well. Add more to build the colour.
• Works in buttercream, chocolate, cocoa butter, ganache, fondant and cake batter.
• Colours deepen as they rest, so let it sit for an hour or more before adding more.
• Store in a cool, dry place away from sunlight.
